Overview
In this short series of interviews, our faculty discuss the recent TRILUMINATE Pivotal Trial Results.
We hear from one of the lead PI’s on the trial, Dr Paul Sorajja (Abbott Northwestern Hospital, Minneapolis, US), as well as Cardiac Surgeon Dr Vinod Thourani (Piedmont Healthcare, Atlanta, US), Interventionalist Prof Ralph Stephan Von Bardeleben (Heart Valve Centre, Mainz, DE) and Heart Failure Specialist Dr Ulrich Jorde (Montefiore Medical Center, New York, US) to understand the implications from various members of the heart team.
Recorded at ACC Congress 2023, New Orleans.

Part 1
TRILUMINATE in a Nutshell: An Overview of Design & Results
Dr Sorajja provides a concise overview of the design and results of TRILUMINATE Pivotal and provides important context to the trial.
Part 2
Procedural Insights: What does TRILUMINATE Pivotal Mean to the Interventionalist?
Prof von Bardeleben discusses the procedural outcomes of the trial from the aspect of an interventionalist, and explains the likely impact on practice.
Part 3
A Surgical Comparison: How Can the Cardiac Surgeon Use This Data?
Dr Thourani explains how the results of TRILUMINATE Pivotal will impact patient selection and identifies the patient groups that would stand to achieve greater benefit from tricuspid valve repair over surgery.
Part 4
Perspective From a Heart Failure Specialist
Dr Jorde, a heart failure specialist, discusses the changes in KCCQ score achieved in TRILUMINATE Pivotal with tricuspid valve repair compared with medical therapy; he then posits how this changes the outlook for heart failure patients with severe, symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation at intermediate or greater surgical risk.
